Synopsis

This book is a detailed exposition on the forces a propeller experiences when operating in non-ideal flight conditions, notably yawed or pitched situations. Historically, these conditions have been handled with simplified formulas derived from wing theory, with limited accuracy. This book provides a new analysis that significantly better describes the propeller's response, based on momentum and vortex considerations. It expands on the work of Harris, Glauert, and others, adding corrections for compressibility and spinner-nacelle effects. The analysis represents a significant step forward in the understanding and calculation of propeller forces in these flight conditions and provides insights that have been lacking in the field for many years.
